The only problem is I had to wait a couple of hours after the engineer left for it to be activated and now I can't work out how to use it and there are no instructions in English. I am going to see if I can change the language setting from Turkish to English and then I should be OK!

Helen are you sure about renting skyplus? We were quoted 900 YTL for the sky plus box.

As i said I;m on something completely different, I now get all the football live, including pre-season games all in English (have to put up with Peter Ried, Ray wilkins, andy T'wnsd etc), plus I get the cricket (sky broadcast), Rugby, motor racing etc etc

To be honest, during the summer you won't spend much time on watching TV anyway. The pool is far more rewarding lol.

p.s. from what I can remember, those who went for D'turk at the start still pay what they use to. You need to pop into their office or any satellite shop and ask for a digiturk brochure.

Hey XXX how do I get what you got....... I need the football!!!!!!!

I have the same package. We did have to pay for someone to come & install it but the dish & box were free.
I find the channels are enough as I have other interests.

I have to agree BBC Prime is an joke. Tepid TV.
I find myself watching more CNBC & sometimes feel in danger of turning into an American.

lottie8888 Senior Member	Re: digiturk? Really?? I cant believe you paid to have someone come and install it maybe its changed from 4years ago? but i know next door defo didnt have to pay as i asked them (maybe because they are turkish?) I was thinking about getting it re-installed as i originally got rid of it as there was never anything to watch?! I popped to the bank on my lunch break and also the digiturk shop as its right next door and they told me it wouldnt cost anything for them to come and install it, i would only have to pay the subscription fee per month?? That was in Bodrum. Im confused??

gren _______	Re: digiturk? What about if i already have 2 80cm dishes all cabled down to the room socket? Both are angled differently.. Anyone know how much they would charge for the basic package? I guess i'd need a Digiturk box...my Sky box doesnt seem to work...blue screen-no signal.
